Martin played well last night.  Koochie played all world tonight. Necas with 4 points was to me the 2nd star. But Koochie was the reason we won.  

Marty was involved in EVERY Canes goal... 

 

Dude is a Hart contender.. .

 

Koooochiekov made of for putting us down 1-0 MARTY MADE THE REST HAPPEN

Luckily I think we could have close to $30mil in cap space next year so it shouldn’t be a problem. I’ll defer to @Anybodyhomefor the stats and cap numbers 

Based on the NHL cap today ($88M), the Canes have $22.9M in projected space going into the 25-26 season. Seems to be a consensus the cap will increase to $92.5M next season, but let's not assume.

The core of this team is locked up for a couple more years, with the only UFAs at the end of this season: Roslovic, Fast, Robinson, Jost, with Orlov and Burns on D.

Remember Seth Jarvis's contract? Remember the press it got because the Canes found a loophole that allowed them to get his contract under the cap by using "deferred salary?" Yeah, don't expect that won't be addressed by the league and that loophole closed. That being said, if the Canes decide to sign Necas long term, they should do it next season and they'll probably need to pay him Aho level money- close to $10M a year.

Let's assume the team gets through the season without any career or long term injury concerns. And, let's be honest in the conversation. Does Jesper Fast have a place on this team right now or have we found the right combination on the ice that he may not be needed? 

Does Brent Burns retire, or will he decide to stay another year? If so, there's a 1-year thank you for your service $6M deal. 

If Roslovic shows out this year, that's gonna be a pretty big contract compared to the 1-year, $2.8M he's getting now. He may command around $4.5 - 5M to stay.

So, those 2 guys are gonna cost you $11M. Get Necas a new deal at $10M, you're up to $14.5M of the $22.9M in space. So you've got about $8.4M to work in Orlov and Robinson, which is do-able.

Plenty of room to work deals and keep every one of the UFAs if the Canes so desire.

Excellent analysis, is Freddie's contract up this year? if so we need another goalie to come out of the cap space.

Well said. Where would Nikishin fit into these numbers?

Freddie is indeed a UFA. And, to be clear, I don't think there's any way he's back next year. So, yeah, add his salary back to the cap room, and remember he'll have to be replaced.

      Updated 2025 draft order

      By Tr3ach · Posted

      Yea, you're right.  I think you're definitely bias.   Show me some routes that show his quickness and explosiveness.  Getting open downfield doesn't necessarily mean you're fast, it especially doesn't mean you're quick.   Lots of wide receivers get open deep in college.  I'm not saying not to take him, I'm just saying so far I haven't seen a lot of quickness or full route tree ability that we always ignore.  Most of the best receivers in the modern NFL aren't big bodied receivers.    Of the top 15 or so receivers in the NFL this season i believe maybe 4 are above 6'1.  Quickness/change of direction and route running are much more important in my opinion in the modern NFL than height.  The modern NFL revolves around quick separation, timing, and tax.  Plus we just drafted XL to be a big body guy.

      I think he's only played a game or two at LT, he's been on the right since the second he was drafted because they already had a franchise LT in Taylor Decker, the only games he played over there was when that guy was injured. Sewell was who I always wanted in that draft and I'm still bitter about Detroit taking him one pick before us (and being from Michigan with all my friends being Lions fans, they still laugh about how angry I was when that happened as we were all watching that draft together). Sewell is the best RT in football and if he was on the left side, he'd still be an All-Pro over there too.
